St. Tomas, December, "91. N THE 10TH OF DECEMBER THE United States Steamship Atlanta was lying at Hampton Roads “ready for sea.” The night Before a few officers who had been on a two- days’ leave to say “goodbye” came hurrying back, and at 10 o'clock the executive officer “took the deck” and the boatswaiu's mate sung out, “All hands up anchor.” The anchor ehain | came rattling in and the screw churned the water as the white cruiser started out for her Jong voyage to Montevideo, one-third the dis tance around the world. Cape Henry faded into the distance and the ship held her course for St Thomas till noon the next day, when the lookout at the mast head sung out, “Wreck, On near approach the wreck proved to be the schooner Tamos, built in Path, Me., in 1382.

On the fifth day the ery of “land ho” comes from the masthead. and little later we make out from the deck the b:gh Innds on the eastern end of St. Thomas, and that night we are at anchor in the harbor of St. Thomas, with th the blue jackets call the “fore, rising before us. St. Thomas | isa Danish colony, and the town is a quaint old , built on the sunny slopes of the three hills, with the red roofs of its houses peeping from the tropical foliage of the surrounding | gardens. Like nearly all the West India islands, the ebief occupation is sugar growing, and the | plantations dot the islana. A visit to one of | tuese plantations is interesting to the visitor. ‘The cane grows very much as indian corn in the United States and it is cultivated by the egroes with overseers riding among thein to| keep them at their work. When the cane is| Fipe it is cut and carted to the suger factories, where it is first run through the crushers and the Juiee 1 taken to the huge evaporating pans, while the crushed stalk furnishes the fuel to evaporate the juice. After the juice is eva orated till it is of the consistency of thiek mo- | lasses it is put in barrels and allowed to settle, When the surface tluid is allowed to drain off some days later, the remaining sugar is Lar- reled upand shipped to every port of the world as the “brown sugar” of commerce, while the molasses drained off is made mto' rum, which 1s one of the staple products of the West Indies. THE FINER GRADES OF SUGAR. The muking of the finer grades of sugars, such as the “granulated” and “loaf” sugars of | commerce, is a much more complicated pro- | cess, and involves the use of much complicated and costly machinery. For making the “cube” sugar used for table purposes almost altogethe im late years the purified molasses is run into | moids and east into long square sticks, which are alterward cut up into the cubes by suitable | cutting machinery. Granulated sugar is made by “tumbling” the irregular erystals from the urifier ina huge revolving barrel, the grade | ug determined by the size of the grain and | purity of the sugar, | While the brown sugar that are ready to be shipped are | fying at the wharves the sirup oozes through | the cracks, and an army of dirty, half-ciad col- ored urchins scratch it up and, regardless of sand and dirt, eat it with great relish, besmear- ing their faces with it. Nine-tenths of the population are negrocs or ereoles (« word that fa the West Indies means tly black aud partly white), and they are the ppiest, most contented lot of humanity I ever saw. They go to their work in the morn- ing singing and playing and como back at wight still more jubilant. The men wear wide-brim- med straw bats, dungeree trousers and czlico shirts, while the women wear gaudy gowns of ealico and no hats or headgear as a rul the ribbands with which they bedeck the: . while scarcely any of the negroes (that is of the working Class) wear either shoes or stock- ings.

The chil- dren generally wear only a short skirt, or if the notion picases them nothing at a they gambol in the streets aud suck the sweet stalks of the cane, they seem to be true “chil- dren of nature.” THE CREOLE WoMEN. ‘The women are accustomed from childhood to carry burdens on their heads, and this gives them a grace of carriage and straightness of form that is noticeable throughout the islands, Many of them have beautitul forms, and, with their well-roanded lnnbs and plump figures, it | is not surprising that they captivated the rough buceaneers of former umes. In the markets they crowd with baskets of fruit om their heads, and, though jostled by the erowd aud kuocked to and fro, the fruit is seldom knocked from their heads.

But the same cannot be said of all the treasure, for iron chests filled with the Spanish gold of the seventeenth century have been die- covered hid in caverns and buried near land- marks, and more than one poor negro's heart has been made glad by the sight of the Spanish “pieces of eight” that every American boy has read of in the “Pirate's Own Book” or in Clark Russell's sea stories, The days of the pirates and buccancers passed away and the islands came to witness the decisive struggle for the supremacy of the seas between the French and the English. The site of the decisive battle was between the islands of Martinique and St. Lucia, and the French admiral, De Grasee, fresh from his laurels at Yorktown, was confident of success, but the English admiral, Rodney, after a tight that lasted gall through’ a hot summer's day, destroyed the French fleet, regained the En- glish West Indies and gave England the supremacy of the sea. The burying ground at Dominica ix still kept in order where the ish adiniral buried his dead sailors before he started back to “Merry England” with his spoils and French eaptives. In she city “Fort of France,” the chief town of Martinique, "which is a French colony, there is a monument to the French sailors that fell in the battle. Froude, the Englieh historian, calls it the “monument to France's departed naval glory.” Weil down on the South American coast is the Island of Aves, said to be the last strong- hold of the buccaneers, and it was here that Charles Kingsley wrote hiv pathetic “LAY OF THE LOST BUCCANEER.” And the poet sang aright, for in the constant summer one might live forever in the shade of the broad spreading palms, fanned by the trade winds and fed by the tropical fruits. But sometimes that dread scourge, yellow fever, weeps the islands and naturally decreases their population; but the danger from yellow | fever is not so great by any means as most ople suppose, aud many of the,islands have poses tor poms without a case of the kind. Leprosy is prevalent among some of the natives, butas it generally comes from the dirt : of the lower clasces, it is not par- ticularly dangerous, as it is not contagious under any but the most extraordinary circum- stances. "During the whole year and especial! during the hotter months from June to N vembeg hurricanes are common, but thore a so many land-locked harbors that navigation luring the whole year is comparatively safe. Asa winter resort these islands are superb, and the chances for colonization are plentiful and good. —— FREAKS OF HUMAN NATURE. Some of Them Which Physicians Have an Opportunity to See in Their Praciice. 66YVE DocToRs HAVE A MUCH BET- ter opportunity than most people for studying human nature,” said » Washington physician to a Sram reporter the other day. “Most patients do not consider it necessary to put on airs before their medical attendants, One thing that has often struck me is the dis- regard which young folks generally have for the old. I don’t mean that they are not oour- teous to them, for courtesy to one’s elders is a matter of ordinary education; but when it comes to really caring for them they are lack- ing asa rule. “One is shocked to read of the manner in which savage tribes all over the world leave the old people to die negleoted, even depriving them of shelter because they are no longer useful. Even in civilized countries the same thing is often done. Go to Savoy and you find that the aged and infirm are put out to beg on the public highways, It is commonly said that the love of the child for the parent is mach less P* | strong, even among the most enlightened peo- ples. than the affection. of the parent for the child. There is a reason for this, whieh ph osophers find ina natural law. The love of the parent for the child is necessary to the perpet- uation of the race, for which nature makes pro- Vision beyond all things else; but, on the other hand, there is no such reason of necessity for cure taking on the part of the child in bebalf of the parent. : . “So Lam not surprised to find in my practice ever so many instances where old people are negiected by their children, who are apt to regard them as a burden, considering often that they would be very much better out of the world any way. Another thing even more emarkabie that I notice is that conjugal affec- tion is very apt not to survive long illnesses, If the wife is an invalid the husband ofttimes becomes indifferent to her after a while. Or. if the husband is sickly, the wife finds it burden- some. In either case the well partner to the matrimonial bargain becomes, though unco! seiously, resentful of the invalidism of the other, and in many eases seeks distractions out- of the home. ‘On the other hand there are women so constituted as to be fitted ture for the duty of taking care of in- valid wives or husbands. I have known a man to marry three times and on each occasion to select a bed-ridden spouse. There was in him evidently an exaggerated impulse to provide for and take care of a mate. Of course every one hears frequently of women who marry drunkards for the purpose of reformizg them, ‘Their impulse may be @ similar one, arising from the desire to act the part at once of wife and rescuer. ennai Making the West.

We'll bet #100 to $25 that he hasn't got 500. We'll bet €100 to a cent that his actual cir culation, counting in all dead hoads, is not over 350.

First Mechanical Methods Employed fer Extinguishing Flames. From the Detroit Free Press. The earliest mention of fire-extinguish! ‘Spparatus of any kind is found in the building accounts of the city of Augeburg, Germany, for the year 1518. In these they are denomi- nated “instruments for fires” and ‘water syringes useful at fires.” Anthony Blatner, a goldsmith at Friedburg, is credited with being the inventor and manufacturer, he having at that time become a citizen of Augsburg. ‘These syringes must have been of consider- able size, as they are described as being mounted on wheels and worked by levers, Caspar Schott, s noted Jesuit, gives an ac- count of one built at Nuremberg in 1657, the largest squirting engine of which there is any record, "te was mounted on a sledge ten feet jong, four feet in width and drawn by two horses. ad two working cylinders placed horizontally in the cistern, which was eight feet long, four feet high and two feet wide. ‘Twenty-eight men were Fequired to work it and it was capable of throwing a jet of water one inch in diameter to a height of eighty feet. As late astheend of the sixteenth cen- tury these contrivances were unknown in Lon- don, where the sgle method of extinguishing fires at that time was by means of contrivances kuown ag “hand squirts.” These were usually made of brats, with a carrying capacity rang- ing from two to four quarts of water. The two- quart “squirts” were twoand a half feet in Tength, one inch and a half in diameter at their largest part and but half an inch at the nozzle. On each side were handles, and three men were requized to manipulate a “‘squirt.” One man on cach side grasped the handle in one hand and the naasloia the other, while the third man worked the piston or pluuger, draw- ing it out whilo the nozzle was immersed in a supply of water, which filled the cylinder. The bearers then elevated the nozzle when the other pushed in the plunger, the skill of the former being employed in directing the stream of water upon the tire. Such primitive con- trivances are said to have been used during the great tire of 1666. In the early part of the seventeenth century some progescive Londoner conceived the idea that by fixin in a portable cis- tern and applying a levera much more effective engine would be the result, ‘This was done, and the improved form was comparatively successful. Mr, Clare, the author of ‘Motion of Fluids,” published in 1735, thus describes this ‘squirting engine: “Itconsisted of a large circular cistern,like @ great tub,mounted upon four stuall solid wheels, running upon axletrees, which supported the vessel. A cover, or false bottom, perforated with numerous smail holes, was fixed inside the cistern, about a foot below the upper edge aud three feet from the bottom, In the center of the perforated covers was fixed a lifting pump, to the piston rod of which was attachod & cross tree carrying two vertical conuccting rods, which Were simultuneously worked up | and) down by manual labor by means of two curved levers, resembling ump handles,in opposite sides of the machine. Juring the downward motion of the piston a quantity of water passed through the valve in its upper surface and got above the piston and during the ascending stroke this water was driven with great velocity through a branch pipe provided with a flexible leather sjoint. ietweon the strokes the stream was discon- tinued. This engine was supplied with water poured into the cistern by buckets, the per- forated cover before mentioned keeping Lack 4 matters ay could be likely to choke or jare the pump work.” Toward the close of the seventeenth contury ‘M. Duperrier in France, Herr Loupold in Ger- many and Mr.Newsham in England introduced aluost simultaneously tire engines having an air chamber, which rendered the stream of water continuous and uniform. In addition to this there cugines were equipped wita tlexible leather hose, invented by Jan Van der H and bis brother, and whieh was first put practical use in Amsterdam in the year 1672. dave JAPAN'S FIL The Firemen of the Mikado’s Realm at Thelr Gymnastic Exercises. From the London Graph No country is so much exposed to fires as Japan. In one week recently 5,000 houses were burned down in Tokio alone, and in the next week 15,000 houses were destroyed in that city, while Sir Rutherford Aleock states that Tokio loses as many houses ay constitute the entire city every ten years. The houses, with the ex- ception of the tiles on the roof, ure constructed entirely of wood and the windows are formed of fine and often beautiful lace work covered with paper. Some buildings in Japan are thatched, while the roofs of others are formed of little slate- of wood, but these so read: arks fall apon them that the Japanese prefer taking the risk of injury from fulling tiles during the earthquake to being in even greater danger from fires than they necessa- Tily must always even now be, It is strange that in thesedays, when so many young na- tives have come to Europe to study the sciences, their acquired knowledge of chemistry has not caused them to adopt some means of rendering the wood of which their houses are constructed, and even the paper af the windows, incombustible. They have, how- ever, in the large towns most efficient fire brigades, and have even the newest and best tire er, sof European or American make, but these are of much less use than might be imagined, for the supply of water is limited and the engine without water is a mere moe! ery. Over every houee door is placed a sign inilicating that there is oe well on the prem- ises, or sometimes we see two or more of these signs, indicating that two or mare wells will be found iu that buildin nd thus the firemen know the sources of their water supply, and from these wells alone ean water be had. ‘The scarcity of water renders it necessary that all buildings surrounding any that may have taken fire be pulled down, so that the burning macs be isolated, for there is no hope of preventing the sprending of the conflag: tion by the water from the engines, anditis this necessity which causes the firemen’s drill in Japan to appear so strange and grotesque to the European. Each fireman is furniahed with a sort of hook, inteuded for use in pulling down the houses, but the question arizes as to where the man is to stand while engaged in his work of destruction. A ladder is held upright bya numberof men, who hold it firmly a4 these hooks; and itisupa ladder thus hel that the firemen go to pulldown the houses which are to be. destroyed in ease of a fire. ‘The chief exercises of the men consist in ascending the Jadder and leaning out from it in a horizontal manner, using the hook while holding on by the feet, and in all sorte of acrobatic feats which seem calealated to aid them in their work. Sometimes # man ascends the ladder and stands in an invérted position on the top round. At other times he gras; one side of the ladder with hie hands aud throws his body out horizontally, so that he may. have free use of his feet—and it must be remembered that the Japs can do much more with their feet than we can with ours—but the chief exercise consists in holding by the feet using the hook with the hands. ‘The firemen are arranged in corps, each of which is headed by the bearer of a large Ian- tern in the form of some curious distinctive de- vice, from which cut papers, a religious em- blem, depend, and we have seon a corps slow! and solemnly marching to a fire, headed witl this insignia, just as though it were taking part in a funeral procession, instead of hurrying, as becomes those concerned in subduing that fear- fal element, fire. ————+ee—____ Right of New Street Hallways to Use Existing ‘Tracks. to BRIGADE, From the Electrical Engineor. ‘The supreme court of California has disposed of the well-known caso of the Pacific Railway Company et al. against Judge Wade of Los Angeles, in an elaborate opinion.
